The Senators announced today that five more players are heading to Binghamton's training camp: forwards Brad Isbister, Greg Mauldin, and Peter Regin, and defencemen Brendan Bell and Matt Carkner. Mostly vets on two-way deals, but the Bell demotion clears up a bit of the log-jam on defence. The battle for the final two spots is now between Alex Picard, Brian Lee, and Christoph Schubert.

After losing their pre-season opener 2-1 to Wilkes Barre/Scranton, these guys will surely help the B-Sens out. The Sens, meanwhile, will get to play an actual game with a probably almost-normal roster tonight, and will bring all 25 players they have--three goalies, eight defence, and 14 forwards--to Sweden. Afterwards, there will likely be more roster movement.
